Description
archive_read_format_rar_read_data in archive_read_support_format_rar.c in libarchive before 3.4.0 has a use-after-free in a certain ARCHIVE_FAILED situation, related to Ppmd7_DecodeSymbol.
A use-after-free vulnerability was discovered in libarchive in the way it processes RAR archives when there is an error in one of the archive's entries. An application that accepts untrusted RAR archives may be vulnerable to this flaw, which could allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service or to potentially execute code.
